Former AC Milan captain Massimo Ambrosini insists Mike Maignan will shake off his form slump.

Ambrosini is adamant Maignan remains the best goalkeeper in Serie A.

He told DAZN: "For me he remains the strongest goalkeeper in the championship even if he has had some setbacks.

"Maybe what happened in Udine is in my head ... They tell me about it as a sensitive boy. The emotional management of some situations may have been difficult."

On the Diavolo's positive return to form, Ambrosini then added: "Whose credit is it for this Milan that has changed gear since December? The answer is in the numbers: in the last 5 matches (Stefano) Pioli's team has scored 14 goals.

"They have not reached a defensive balance, but he increased the threat and goal scoring rate: this allowed him to stay in contact with those two up front."
